TODAY-F
fraining -Consultant
ays-County in For
liq Business Boom
In the next five to 10 years I The training consultant
this country is in for the
greatest boom it has ever
known, F. H. Womack, Aus
tin,. Tex., stated yesterday in
a talk to Medford Kiwanis
club. . ' . ...
Womack, a training consult
ant in public relations and per
sonnel management, said the
boom should extend 20 to 25
years. He pointed to increase
in population as a reason for
the boom in business. .
The consultant addressed
Kiwanians at their luncheon
at Rogue Valley Country club.
He is conducting classes three
days this week at Hedrick
Junior High school, under
sponsorship of the Retail Cred
it association and the Credit
Bureau of Medford.
Felt in Certain Areas
Womack, who reported that
he had "pipelines" to econo
mists, said that the so-called
"recession" is only being felt
in certain areas to any extent.
He said that the recession has
been localized with industrial
ized areas, the auto, steel and
iron and alloy industries being
hard hit. The consultant re
ported that the Southwest was
not touched hard and the West
Coast was only lightly hit.
Concerning the outlook in
the immediate future, Womack
said that business and govern
ment heads in Washington,
D.C., have recognized what' is
happening and are doing
something about it. However,
he told of the current aversion
toward rush legislation. He. in
dicated that it will be another
month before some of the lev
eling off effects are felt and
predicted a slight upturn in
the latter part of the year.
Unemployment now is de
clining but will go back up in
June, Womack said. He added
that this is a "natural thing"
and nothing to get excited
about. He mentioned the addi
tion of students to the labor
market as a reason.
Long Range Projects -
Concerning some of the
trends, Womack reported that
businessmen, instead of look
ing for a "fast buck," are
eyeing long range projects. He
reported that savings are at
the highest level in history
and that people, unsure of the
future, are paying off install
ment credits fast and are pay
ing for things in cash.
Management realizes that it
is to blame . for some of the
faults in business, Womack
stated. It is going into the
field of public relations and
an aim is to stress to . every
person of an organization that
he is a direct representative
of that business. "One of the
things we need most in ' life
is to get along with other peo
ple," Womack stressed.

mentioned to the service club
members the sweeping eco
nomic - changes ; which take
place when as many as lOO
people are brought into a com
munity by a business. He said
that 174 other jobs are cre
ated and sales and bank de
posits go' up.
Lavern Watrud, accountant,
was introduced as a new mem
ber of the Medford -Kiwanis
club. President Bill Singler
announced that the club would
be host Wednesday, May 28, to
dentists who are donating timel
to the; Kiwanis-sponsored den
tal clinic. It also will be loud
shirt day for Kiwanians.

Nixon Rated
Top Candidate
For President
Washington OF Sen.
William F. Knowland said to
day he considers Vice Presi
dent Richard M. Nixon to be
the only "major" Republican
candidate for the presidency
in .1960.
The California Republican,
GOP leader in the Senate,
made the statement at a news
conference when asked if he
thought Nixon's " presidential
stock was boosted by the big
reception he received fol
lowing ..his violence-marred
tour of 'South America.
"I do not, agree with some
columnists that this devel
opment should necessarily be
tied in with 1960," Knowland
said. "While I don't feel the
South American tour and the
1960 elections is particularly
significant, I think the vice
president is the leading con
tender for the presidency and
so far as I can see he is the
only major candidate on -the
Republican ticket."
Knowland said that Nixon
and his wife, , Pat, "handled
themselves extremely . jvell
under the most trying circum
stances." Knowland is retiring from
the Senate to run for govern
or of California.
His opponents have charged
that Knowland hopes to use
the governorship as a, "step
ping, stone" to the .-' White
House. He has insisted re
peatedly that he is running
for governor "and nothing
else." i-
